Glucono Delta Lactone (GdL)

Cat no: G3035

Glucono Delta Lactone (GdL)

Glucono-1,5-Lactone or GdL is a neutral cyclic ester of gluconic acid, produced with the acid by fermentation of glucose. It is separated from the acid by crystallisation. GdL is a fine, white crystalline powder, freely soluble in water. It is practically odorless and has a slightly sweet taste. Non toxic, it is completely metabolized in the body like a carbohydrate. When added into an aqueous solution, GdL rapidly dissolves, and subsequently slowly hydrolyses to gluconic acid, producing a gentle acidification in the same way as lactic acid-producing bacteria. In solution both gluconic acid and GdL are always in balance. The equivalent point and the rate of transformation are related to concentration, temperature and pH.\n\nApplications:\nControlled release acidulant\nMild acidulant\nCuring accelerator\nLeavening agent\nChelating agent\nPreservative agent enhancer\n\nTypical Specifications:\nAppearance: Fine, white, crystalline powder\nPurity: (same/more than)99%\nArsenic: (same/less than) 0.0003%\nHeavy Metals (Pb): (same/less than) 0.002%\nReducing Substances: (same/less than) 0.5%\n\nRegulatory:\nGlucono-delta-lactone is supplied in accordance with the latest requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), the Food Chemicals Codex (FCC) and of Commission Regulation (EU) No 231/2012.\n\nIn Europe GdL is listed as a generally permitted food additive (E 575) and may be added to all foodstuffs, following the "quantum satis" principle, as long as no special regulation restricts the use.
